some of my fav instas:  for home  | for clothes  |  for dessert

blog love:

• Love baby gender reveals - and how freaking cute is Lauren? 
• Anne rocks how to wear a dark floral top now and in warmer weather. 
• Want to copy everything from this studio for my own home...all the heart eyes...

on teal and polka dots:

• on the blog: I feel like I owe you guys a great big apology for last week. Life got crazy, the baby didn't sleep (as in I've been function on 2-3 hours of sleep a night for past five nights in a row) and all I've had the will to manage is work and family, so the blog fell by the wayside. I didn't blog, didn't post a single thing on Instagram, just completely checked out. I’ll try my best to do better this week. :)
• coming up on the blog: hopefully that midi skirt post I promised last week. :)

favorite sales:

• Extra 50% off + free shipping  at Ann Taylor with code SPRINGTOIT
• My picks are this drapey elbow length sleeve deep plum tee, 
• this bright pink ruffle flare sleeve dress and
• this subtle but fun white floral jacquard boatneck sweater.
• Up to 50% off at GAP + an additional 30% with code FORYOU
• This navy floral kimono jacket would look so cute with a pair of shorts or white jeans. 
• Love the distressed detail and long (but not frumpy length) of these mid rise 5" denim shorts. 
• Adore this fresh and summery white eyelet midi dress. 
• Extra 40% off sale at J. Crew with code TAKE2030
• Love how the ruffle eyelet hem really elevates this basic white tee. 
• This light blue (or pink!) wrap sweater has the perfect casual but polished vibe. 
• This black with white embroidery midi skirt is the perfect mix of boho meets professional. 

whatnots:

• what I'm watching: "The Great Interior Design Challenge" on Netflix. 
• what I'm crushing on: all the cute Magnolia Home things that would look perfect on my mantel like these chippy corbel bookends, these wood nesting houses and this pretty white on cream gourd vase. 
• what I'm looking forward to: SLEEP!
